About 250.000.000 pound* of honey are produced annually In the United States. California being the leading state In the production of this sweet. Honey prediction in thla country could be Increased largely—ten or twenty times the present yield—without an appreciable increase in the cost of production, for the raw material— the nectar in flowers—ia at certhln times practically unlimited. To produce more honey we Just need more colonies of bees properly managed. The proposition Is very simple to state, but decidedly difficult to execute. Sue- I ressfut beekeeping requires a high de- | gree of skill, special training, and faithful, persistent attculon to the business, so any marked Increase in successful beekeeping hinges upon educational work among present and pro-
spective beekeepers.
